Fishers–those darling little critters similar to minks or otters–were recently reintroduced to the Olympic National Park. They disappeared in the mid-1900’s due to over-trapping and loss of habitat. Their recovery appears to be on the road to success, based on these first sightings of newborn fishers in their native habitat. Check out the cute-as-a-bug’s-ear video and pictures from from the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife. Watch carefully as the mother fisher carries each of her four kits down a den snag in the forest and off to a new location. This is great news! Congratulations to the WDFW and the Olympic National Park on the success of the Olympic fisher reintroduction project.
